:4D3N Medan - Lake Toba Summary:

4 Day 3 Night is just nice for a trip to Lake Toba, providing you arrive in the morning and leaving in the evening. It's good to arrive earlier on day 1, because the last ferry to Samosir Island leaves at 7pm. And from Medan airport to the jetty, you need to allocate around 5 hours car ride.

The whole 4 day 3 night tour can be summarize as:
Day 1 - 13/9/2012 - Polonia Airport Medan - Parapat - Samosir Island
Day 2 - 14/9/2012 - Visit Whole Samosir Island & Tele (Batu Kursi Raja Sialagan - Menara Pandang Tele - Pangururan Hot Spring - Tomok)
Day 3 - 15/9/2012 - Parapat - Bukit Unta - Simarjarunjung - Sipiso-piso Waterfall - Rumah Bolon - Berastagi (Fruit Market) - Overnight at Horiston Berastagi
Day 4 - 16/9/2012 - Berastagi (Pagoda Steel, Mt. Sibayak, Velangkany Church) - Medan (Cake shops) - Polonia Airport

Total damage is RM630 - includes RM73 air ticket that we got from Air Asia zero fair! And souvenirs, 1 hour massage (RM30) arrange by Samosir Villa Resort (ah, DO skip this. It's a waste of money. Total waste. Oily and I don't call that massage. I call that rubbing! Darn it.).

We took the ground package from Danau Toba Travel. Total cost is IDR2350k for 4 day 3 night and we shared it among six of us. Cheap and budget enough =)

Hope you have fun too!
